The federal government has launched a website that will allow Australians who are eligible under phase 1b of the coronavirus vaccine rollout to book a jab.
From Monday, more than 1,000 general practices across the country will begin offering vaccinations to high-priority groups, including people aged over 70, Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander people aged over 55, adults with underlying medical conditions and critical and high-risk workers, along with health workers not covered in phase 1a.
Those Australians can now use the Department of Health s eligibility tool to book a vaccine appointment at their nearest GP.
